After reading the editorial con- lem faced by citizens of Detroit and
cerning the proposed teacher strike surrounding suburbs as a result of
at Shaarey Zedek, one point that the conduct of the ultra-right group
was stressed upset me. The point, which calls itself Breakthrough.

Free Diabetes Detection
Tests Offered at Sinai
Sinai Hospital of Detroit, in
cooperation with the Michigan
Diabetes Association, will offer
free diabetes screening tests to
all persons over age 21 Monday

These tests are available to any-
one who is not a known diabetic,
and for best results they are
advised to eat a full, rich meal
about two hours before the test.
Dr. Henry D. Kahle is chairman of
the Michigan Diabetes Detection
Program.
Editor, The Jewish News:
Once again the idiocy and nar-
row-mindedness of the extremist
element in American society raised
its Medusa head to the foreground
in the ugly and deplorable display
of "Christian" love and hatred at
the Detroit Institute of Arts on
Oct. 21.
This g r o up of "Christians"
operating under the title of Break-
through fears what it does not
know . . . So these people hurling
their foul and hate-filled language
at the American public seek to hide
and find protection by accusing
various political societies as
"murderers of Christians".
It is unfortunate when a wall of
hatred and lies has become so
thick it is impervious to any intel-
lectual or cultural stimulation.
I think this group owes an
apology to the audience who wit-
nessed this shameful display of
"American Patriotism". And
certainly an apology should be
forthcoming from the city of De-
troit for the pompous pageant of
"Christian" hatred presented be-
fore the Moscow Chamber Orches-
tra.

`Israeli Coin Rush'
NEW YORK — The ranks of
Israel's "millionaire exporters"
have been joined by one whose
first million dollars in exports
came from the sale of Israeli
coins. During the past year, the
Government Coins and Medals
Corp. exported some $1,250,000
worth.
Letters from bank managers all
over the United States, addressed
to Yitzhak Avni, corporation direc-
tor, note the astounding success
of a one-time sale of Israeli coins
last Independence Day. Reading
these letters might give the im-
pression that the people of the
United States and other lands are
going through a new era, "The
Great Israeli Coin Rush." Bank
managers in Nebraska, for in-
stance, order Israeli coins a year
ahead.
On Israeli Coin Sales Day, which
was given prominent publicity
through the press, television and a
roving exhibition of ancient and
modern coins, a Philadelphia bank
had a line of 50 people waiting
outside its doors even before they
opened for the day. "Such a
phenomenon," the manager wrote
to Avni, "has not been witnessed
by us in all the days of our
operation."
A similar incident occurred on
New York's Fifth Avenue. 150,000
sets of Israeli coins of the 1965
issue, which were placed on the
market then for the first time,
were bought up in no time at all. I
